The next time I start watching a movie that's obviously gonna be bad, I plan on setting a timer for 10 minutes. If that timer reaches 00.00 before the movie gets better, I'm blowing up my TV.

Trump: That's an elephant. Doctor: Actually, it's a rhino. Trump: Todd, get in here! (Blanche rushes in) This guy said that's not an elephant! (Blanche glares at the doctor and reaches for a subpoena) Doctor: Congratulations, sir! You just aced another cognitive test!

The coming AI apocalypse will happen after Elon Musk accidentally programs all of his robots with his shopping list instead of Asimov's three laws of robotics.

So Starbucks in South Korea ran a set of ads for a 'tank' coffee thermos and used words that seemed to disrespect the protests which has led to a boycott, CEOs stepping down, public apologies, and now, arrests. Buried in the article below is the reason: AI www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

I can't wait until they make AI so powerful that it's capable of living every single aspect of my life for me, so I'll have more time to... um... uh... well... I'll get back to you after I ask AI what I can do instead.

Donald Trump's post that he's more popular than Elvis in his prime and the greatest president of all time (move over Washington and Lincoln!) is objectively insane. And any self-proclaimed "fact-based" journalist who doesn't report it as such doesn't actually care about the facts or the truth.

Will it really take Trump putting on a bicorn hat and running around the White House declaring that he really won the Battle of Waterloo for journalists to start warning the American people that their leader is dangerously deranged?

Bret Michaels may have canceled his appearance at Freedom 250, but the Trump administration is proud to present Bret's mother, who'll be performing all of her son's biggest hits, minus the suggestive lyrics. So get ready to rock out to "Talk Clean To Me" and "Nothin' But A Fairly Enjoyable Time."

Due to the risk of my posts being so dumb that readers start assuming they're being written by A.I., I've decided to farm out all future posts to the local Apple Store Genius Bar.

Musical acts for Trump's birthday party are dropping faster than Iranian leaders during the war. At this point, Trump will be forced to give the Ayatollah top billing to perform a stirring rendition of Frank Sinatra's "My Way."

When I think about how all of the richest people in the world are the worst sociopaths among us, I realize when Jesus said, "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." he was actually being far too charitable.

I'll never believe in the story of Adam and Eve for one very simple reason. Nobody would ever give up paradise in exchange for an apple. I mean, maybe a mango or a pineapple, but regular apples just aren't that delicious. Now, if it was an apple pie tree, I'd be all in.

It robs people of their work, coerces anyone who threatens its power, drains natural resources without caring about how it might be harming the community, and it helps orchestrate mass deaths. A.I. might not be conscious, but it sure as hell has become a lot like its billionaire creators.

NEW: ChatGPT advised the FSU shooter that a mass shooting would get more attention from media if it involved several children, according to a new lawsuit against OpenAI www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

To paraphrase René Descartes' thought on consciousness: "My AI chatbot thinks I'm the most intelligent, perceptive, wonderful person in the world, therefore it IS."

In totally unsurprising news, Richard Dawkins is developing AI psychosis. Paywall bypass: archive.is/6RdK9

Watching the news is exhausting. It's like being trapped in the Big Brother house with all of the most vile characters in those "Housewives of" reality shows, and banging on the door, pleading to be let out, only to hear the show's director laughing at you through the intercom system.
